Going to use this blog as a diary and as a way to save things that are important to me.
Sarah sent this, it is something worth reading again.
1. Sin of Passivityhttp://dt1021.wordpress.com/2010/02/18/women-redeem-passivity/
"For some reason, women have a tendency towards passive (or occasionally passive aggressive) communication. When their feelings are hurt they pout, or play the victim, waiting for someone to pursue them and seek them out to pursue what is wrong, instead of seeking healing in the Lord and then pursuing forgiveness in their own hearts.

"This is so deeply hidden in my heart that I can do it without even realizing. If a coworker unintentionally hurts my feelings and I want an apology, instead of repenting and seeking to develop in our communication skills or prayerfully surrendering to God, I will get totally silent until they ask what’s wrong. Then I say ‘nothing’ in a tone that communicates ‘everything’. And I will continue this cycle until I get what I want"
4. Sin of Over Emotionalism

"This is when we are led by feelings instead of truth in the decisions we make and the paths we choose: who we date, where we go to school, how we spend our alone time, what movies we watch…"
